Wow factor, indeed! Only minutes from the inviting sands of Huntington Beach, this home is a jewel in a gloriously landscaped setting. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be captured by the professional design touches to lawn, shrubbery, walkway, driveway—from the brick accents to carriage lamps. As you approach the brick surfaced entry porch, laid in herringbone pattern, you’ll stop a moment to admire the custom designed double doors of richly finished wood and leaded glass, accented with gleaming brass fittings. Swing the doors open and reveal a residence meticulously designed with high end finishes and attention to detail that will suit the most discerning buyer. The thoughtfully laid out single level home offers plenty of space for living and entertaining. A beautiful living room features custom built, floor to ceiling display shelves and storage cabinets as well as a handsome dark marble surround fireplace. A formal dining room adjoins an undeniably fabulous custom-designed and built kitchen with stainless steel appliances, elegant cabinetry, under-cabinet lighting, recessed overhead lighting, double oven, and a window over the kitchen sink. The countertops (including the large peninsula with bar seating), and full-height backsplashes are rendered in sparkling dark granite. All this perfection flows into a comfortable family room with granite tile and wood surround fireplace, wall mounted TV, 6-speaker surround sound system (with additional speakers outdoors). Through the slider, step out to your lush private oasis—a completely enclosed, absolutely awesome backyard. Enjoy dining on the pergola covered patio amidst the Japanese maples, aromatic roses, colorful shrubs, and manicured green lawns (croquet anyone?). When day is done, you’ll find four lovely bedrooms, all with genuine cherry hardwood floors, closets with custom fittings, and beautiful ceiling fans. The spacious main bedroom features a private bath with hand-tiled step-in shower. The secondary bedrooms share a large bath with dual sink vanity and tub-shower. This stunning home is newly painted throughout (including the two-car garage) and features plantation shutters, central A/C, and recessed lighting in most areas. Located in a quiet, pride-of-ownership neighborhood, you’ll have easy access to one of the top-rated school districts in Orange County, as well as the dynamic Huntington Beach Main Street with all its shopping and dining, the Pier, and, of course, miles of beaches.
